PROBLEM Non existing URL's hit

[ruschan]

I also encountered the same thing.  See: http://get-simple.info/forums/showthread.php?tid=17104

As an example, I can provide the following link.  http://gs1000.showme.zone/this/URL/is/invalid/article-029

My question is, is there a solution?  At the moment I am considering detecting this issue by comparing the Canonical URL with the actual URL and forcing a 404 error...

Does anyone have a suggestion as to how and where to implement that?  I ask because I am definitely not the only one affected.

Thanks

Hi Anthony. Did you manage to solve this problem?
I also have this problem and I need a programmer, it seems, to make changes to the CMS.

Hello Ruscan, I have not made time to dig into this.  My hope is to move to the new CE addition of GetSimple and see if it is still and issue there.

Hello, my friend. My programmer has developed a plugin for 404 errors for pages that are duplicated.
The plugin is designed according to your idea.
The plugin checks the presence of the canonical tag on the page and the site address on the browser.
If the addresses do not match, then error 404 is returned.
